The Delhi High Court has directed the formation of a medical board to assess Amit Katyal’s health, a close associate of Lalu Prasad, who is seeking interim bail on medical grounds in a money laundering case. Katyal underwent bariatric surgery, and the court emphasized the right to health as a component of the right to life under Article 21.
The Delhi High Court upheld Amit Katyal’s four-week interim bail, rejecting the Enforcement Directorate’s plea to cancel it due to medical reasons. The court noted that an extension request is pending and directed the ED to address medical concerns in the trial court. Katyal is accused in a land-for-jobs scam involving Lalu Prasad.
